First time at this B&B. Location is convenient to everything. Only block to beach and 2 blocks to main shopping area. While there is no on-site parking, it is around the corner and we did not need our car the entire weekend. Great location to walk to everything. The room was ok. Nothing fancy but functional and we sleep great.... More

Pharo's Inn was a great place to stay. My wife and I had first went to Cape May when we were dating close to 20 years ago and it is still as scenic as ever. I decided to stay at Pharo's Inn since I enjoy staying at bed and breakfasts more than hotels. "Ski" is the owner and he made... More

The entry parlor was a bite dark & drab for my liking. The room didn't have any flare & wasn't very cozy. The A/C unit was loud & so was the fan in the bathroom. The fan in the bathroom was not on a separate switch so it went on every time w. the light. This was a problem because... More

We just had our fourth stay here and yet again enjoyed our stay. We always come away as if we had just stayed with family. We always feel welcome and enjoy our visit with Pat and Walt. They always make our stay very comfortable and stress free. This is the way to see Cape May and all it has to... More

I've stayed in Pharo's inn 4 times already. And always want to come back. It's a lovely B&B. Walt and Pat, the owners, are wonderful people! It's always great to have a conversation with them and it feels like a real home away from home. The rooms are very clean and well furnished and decorated. They serve homemade breakfast in... More

We liked this bed and breakfast, nice and clean room in an old victorian house - only 7 rooms - nothng fancy but well maintained. Located on a very nice and quiet street (Columbia). Free parking within 5 minutes walk of the house. Also about 5 minutes walk from the beach. Owners are very friendly. The breakfast is served between... More

I have to say, I had some reservations after reading reviews of this inn on this site and others. But our weekend at Pharo's Inn was fantastic! We stayed in Bedroom #1 on the first floor and had an enormous, comfortable king bed and plenty of room for a pack and play for our daughter to sleep in. Breakfasts at... More

OK I have seen some less than stellar reviews of my home away from home so it is time to speak up. Cape May is my home away from home and for the last 12 years now Pharo's has been the place I call home when I am in Cape May (which is often). Yup, it may not have hot... More

I was really disappointed with this hotel. My main issues were: 1. The Inn Owners seemed very confused, and the man had a difficult time understanding me on the phone. I spent my first 5 minutes after arriving trying to explain to him that I needed to check in -- he didn't understand and kept asking me if I needed... More

We spent a restful weekend at the Pharo's Inn B and B and gave it mixed reviews. The pluses are that Walt greeted us and told us where to find free parking. The rooms were simple but Very clean. The AC worked well and we were very well located both with proximity to great restaurants, the mall area and the... More
